I tell my kids the same thing every day- Kids break the rules every day. If you get caught its going to be much worse because you have much more to lose. Life is not fair. So hammer them all, but I knew some girls back in the day who cried wolf and knew some who did not mind going into rooms with multiple dudes in them. So yes, hammer folks yet at the same time things can be really complicated in a sexual free society Quote

A fine example of that is Casey Anthony she was never found not guilty of a crime but would you want her around your kids? The problem with Art is that he doesn't seem to worry about his players character off the field. If character on your football team doesn't matter you hire Art if it does matter you don't hire Art Briles That is a broad brush stroke....how many of his players from Stephenville, before Stephenville, Texas Tech, UH and Baylorndo you know to make such a statement?

I mean he personally did not kill anyone. He was just the manager at the McDonalds. I don't remember Briles ordering anybody to go rape anybody else. I mean, I get that you've run out of reasonable arguments, but this one is a stretch. Manson died in prison. NOBODY is arguing that Briles even committed a crime. Nobody had more to gain from the Baylor fiasco than UT, so I get where you're coming from. You guys were able to climb back to the top of.... wait, had the opportunity to climb back out of the Big 12 cellar. Kind of a shame that you didn't. Quote
Guest ECBucFan Posted May 30, 2019 Report Posted May 30, 2019 Comparing Briles to Charles Mansion now. Thats just insane. Shows how off the rail the anti Briles lynch mob STILL is. So sad. Quote

What's actually more disturbing is how many people do not believe in the great American philosophy of "innocent until proven guilty!" And by the way -- one can only be an apologist for Art Briles if he actually did something wrong to apologize for! Quote

NHSBulldogFan Posted May 31, 2019 Report Posted May 31, 2019 Now if we can get back to the news of Art Briles being back in Texas High School Football...Art Briles will be making $82,000 a year as the head coach at Mt. Vernon. He’s under a two-year contract. He will not have to teach. And he will be able to bring in his own staff. Quote

Reagan Posted June 2, 2019 Report Posted June 2, 2019 From the article; "Baylor has changed its tune on former coach Art Briles, now saying he had no role in covering up sexual assaults by football players.

Reagan Posted June 3, 2019 Report Posted June 3, 2019 Here, again, is a great comparison: This group, and I'm sure there are many clones, wants B. Kavaugh fired because "allegations" were made against him. NOT because they were true. I read an article that said Baylor DID NOT fire Briles because of cause.

To get on my greatness list, one has to earn it. Now, the character of an individual coach is judged in a different arena. One would have to talk to the people he's coached, the teachers he's taught with and the community in general. I wonder, has anyone made an effort to contact pass players and people in the community to get their opinion of him as a person. Probably have not. Because I'm sure their responses would not fit the mold of the allegations at Baylor!! Quote
